I know we've discussed this before- but I just don't know how the RSX is going to fit into this new lineup. Anyway....I don't know if I should be impressed that Honda is rolling out a pretty competetive little compact in the Civic or extremely pissed that we had to pay so much and have so little to show for it now...

Still using those goddamn Michelins though on the Si.
Just looked at the honda website. It really bothers me that they're giving the SI a LSD, but our RSX's never came with one, even in 06. The 18" wheels would have been nice too. I like the SI, but I think the RSX still has better styling, exterior and interior. I'm not sure if it's worth $4000, but I don't care much for the SI's styling. Does the SI handle better than the RSX? I hope that the 07 RSX revamp rumor is true, otherwise I don't see any reason for Honda to keep the RSX around, especially without a LSD.

You know what the worst thing of all is? the SI has a f***ing armrest. WTF Honda?
